Stand Out Events will be hosting ‘Euphoria’, a music concert with a live performance by Loreen, the winner of the Eurovision 2012. The concert, which will be held at the MFCC open air grounds Ta’ Qali on 25 July, will see other popular local live acts, and top local dance music artists including Tenishia, Kurt Calleja, DJ Ruby, Brooke and MsLeads. ‘Euphoria’ will be hosted by Pierre Cordina.
Having won this year’s Eurovision Song Contest with a remarkable score of 372 (the second highest score in the competition’s history), Swedish vocalist Loreen’s Euphoria looks set to be a huge hit in the UK as it has jumped straight to the #1 slot on the iTunes chart. The track has made a huge impression around the entire continent and looks set to become a pan-European smash hit with major chart placing in multiple countries.
Signed to Warner Music Sweden, Loreen was the overwhelming favourite to win this year’s competition which was held in Baku, Azerbaijan and viewed by an international audience of an estimated 120 million people. Loreen won with a massive lead of 113 points as she was awarded points by 40 of the 41 competing countries which were eligible to vote for her.
Loreen, 28, was raised in the countryside outside Stockholm, in a family of Moroccan-Berber origin. She has a very focused attitude to her music. She gets frustrated when she’s tagged as an R&B artist: “It’s almost bizarre. I never listen to R&B or soul music! The music I get inspiration from is music that gets you into a kind of a trance. Both musically and vocal wise. Artists like Björk, some of Enya’s music, and especially Lisa Gerrard”.
Euphoria, written and produced by Peter Boström and Thomas Gison, is Loreen’s third single release and has already spent three weeks topping the Swedish charts quickly surpassing Platinum status. Neighbouring Norway and Finland were quick to discover this uplifting future anthem and are currently also reporting no.1 positions. Loreen’s highly anticipated debut album is scheduled for a September release.
